✨ SHOW UPDATES! ✨

We’ve got some exciting changes to share… 🎭

Our production of Disney's Beauty and the Beast will now take place in May 2027! We’ve been given the opportunity to bring this magical show to life at a larger venue, therefore, the show will be moving to The Coro in Ulverston. This is an incredible show which deserves to be done at the largest scale possible and we are so excited to have the chance to do this 🥀✨

But don’t worry… you won’t have to wait long for your next BODS show! 👀

We’re thrilled to announce that Dear Evan Hansen has been brought forward and will now be our next production in October 2026, taking place at Chetwynde School 💙
An emotional, powerful and contemporary musical... we cannot wait to share this incredible story with you.

If you would like the opportunity to be a part of Dear Evan Hansen, rehearsals will begin on Monday 20th April at Abbey Road Baptist Church, 7:30pm. More information on auditions will follow.

Thank you to everyone for their continued support and we can't wait for our next two incredible shows! 🎭
